Pi Day

At BTC, we think of it as a great opportunity to talk about growing the pie that is our state budget through tax choices that ensure corporations and the wealthy pay what they owe. It’s also an opportunity to lift up the ways in which our public money gets spent and the importance of people having a say in that process.

Taste and vote for the best pie from our lineup of local bakers and North Carolina partner organizations and learn how we can grow our “pie” of public funding so everyone can thrive in NC.

En BTC, lo vemos como una gran oportunidad para hablar sobre cómo aumentar la tarta que es nuestro presupuesto estatal mediante decisiones fiscales que aseguren que las corporaciones y los más ricos paguen lo que deben. También es una oportunidad para destacar las formas en que se gasta nuestro dinero público y la importancia de que las personas tengan voz en ese proceso.
